As part of the Saginaw Chapter of LLEAD Michigan (Latino Leaders for the Enhancement of Advocacy and Development), I was given this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be the interviewer to a trailblazer of this magnitude. The interview was held at Delta College in Saginaw, where John Quinones recently spoke as part of the Delta College President Speakers Series.

The tables felt turned as I interviewed the celebrated journalist, Emmy award winner, and host of ABC’s Primetime: “What Would You Do?” John Quinones. Frankly, I felt like I was simply asking a wise tio (uncle) for advice as he shared his story. Feeling that comfortable was unreal, but that is the connection that John Quinones gives to everyone he meets.

The process started weeks ago as Angleo Kapp, Saginaw Michigan LLEAD Chapter Vice President, contacted the agent of John Quinones to arrange a pre-interview meet and greet. To our surprise, Angelo received an email from John himself saying, “Let’s meet for a bite to eat…” In a matter of 12 hours following that exchange, Angelo and I were able to gather some leaders in the community to Gilly’s Bistro in Bay City for a private dinner with John.

Dinner at Gilly’s Bistro was a rare event for many of us. We could openly speak to someone who has come from an environment that not many people can relate to. John was more interested in hearing from us! As he made his way around the room, he shook hands, gave hugs, and said, “Hello, tell me about you.” or “Hi, nice to meet you. Who are you?” Giving each person an opportunity to share their story.

I was asked numerous times if I felt nervous leading up to the interview, and my answer was always the same: “No, he is just like you and me- he just has a TV show.” I approached the interview simply as the voice of the community.

LLEAD Saginaw created a Google survey giving the community the opportunity to ask John Quinones questions. From the submissions we collected, we formed the questions that would guide me through the interview. It was incredible to see the amount of feedback we received and how diverse the questions were. Yet most had a similar thread asking “how?”

Ava Barajas, a high school dual enrolment student, joined me in the interview. Ava is a journalism student. Sitting down with John at the interview table, we had our questions ready, and before we had the camera rolling, he said, “Wow, this is just great. Just look at how wonderful this all is- this is the future.”

When I asked, “What challenges did you face as a Latino student in college?” He responded almost instantly, saying, “I was going to drop out! My family could not afford for me to go to school. In my sophomore year, the big challenge was that I was going to drop out. My family needed me.” He added that sticking with it for the bigger picture and surrounding himself with like-minded students and friends helped him. “Have friends who have the same dreams, wishes, and aspirations.” He added his parents were always supportive of him continuing his education. His mother, who cleaned homes for a living, knew the power of education and told him never to give up.

John spoke of his journey from growing up in a migrant family to the public figure he is today. I asked, “What was the initial spark in him that pushed him in the direction to become a journalist?” John sat back, and with confidence and motivation in his voice, he said, “I wanted to shine a light on things that were wrong.”

John said when he grew up picking tomatoes in Ohio and Cherries in Michigan, his family and the families they traveled with faced discrimination. They were looked down on, and people made presumptions based on how he looked and spoke. John added, “I wanted to change the world! When you look at a reporter, you look at a reformer, someone who wants to make the world a better place.”

The experience was like no other, and the amount of insight John shared with everyone he spoke with was monumental. What he has contributed to the world is more than just showing us how to step into an unjust or unfair situation, like in his show “What Would You Do?” John has opened the door to a world of possibilities for not just the Latino community but everyone who has ever felt like they are less, defeated, labeled, or just not enough. John left us with this quote, and I will always refer back to it: “Remind yourself that you are worthy…We have a beautiful legacy and history, and we can bring so much to the table.”

Una entrevista con John Quiñones de la cadena de televisión ABC

Como parte de la Extensión Saginaw de LLEAD Michigan (Líderes Latinos para el Desarrollo y la Defensa Legal), he tenido la oportunidad única, de ser la entrevistadora de un pionero de gran magnitud. La entrevista se llevó a cabo en la Universidad Delta College en Saginaw, donde John Quiñones recientemente formó parte de los oradores magistrales de Delta College.

Sentí que mi vida cambió al entrevistar a este célebre periodista Juan Quiñones, ganador del premio Emmy y presentador del programa Primetime de ABC: “¿Qué harías?”. Francamente, sentí que le estaba pidiendo consejo a un sabio tío, mientras él compartía su historia. Sentirme tan cómoda era irreal, pero esa es la conexión que John Quiñones brinda a todos los que conoce.

El proceso comenzó hace semanas cuando Angelo Kapp, vicepresidente de la Extensión LLEAD de Saginaw Michigan, se puso en contacto con el agente de John Quiñones para concertar una reunión previa a la entrevista. Para nuestra sorpresa, Angelo recibió un correo electrónico del propio John que decía: “Reunámonos para comer algo…” En cuestión de 12 horas, Angelo y yo pudimos reunir a algunos líderes de la comunidad en Gilly’s Bistro en la ciudad de Bay, para tener una cena privada con John.

La cena en Gilly’s Bistro fue un evento extraño para muchos de nosotros. Podríamos hablar abiertamente con alguien que proviene de un entorno, con el que no muchas personas pueden relacionarse. ¡John estaba más interesado en saber de nosotros! Mientras recorría la habitación, nos dio la mano, nos abrazó y dijo: “Hola, háblame de ti”. o “Hola, encantado de conocerte. ¿Quién eres?” Le dio a cada persona la oportunidad de compartir su historia.

Me preguntaron muchas veces si me sentía nerviosa antes de la entrevista, y mi respuesta siempre fue la misma: “No, él es como tú y como yo, solo tiene un programa de televisión”. Abordé la entrevista simplemente como la voz de la comunidad.

LLEAD Saginaw hizo una encuesta de Google, que brindaba a la comunidad la oportunidad de hacerle preguntas a John Quiñones. Con las respuestas que obtuvimos, formamos las preguntas que me guiarían a lo largo de la entrevista. Fue increíble ver la cantidad de comentarios que recibimos y la diversidad de las preguntas; sin embargo, la mayoría tenía algo similar usando la pregunta “¿cómo?”

Ava Barajas, una estudiante del programa de inscripción dual, me acompañó a la entrevista. Ava es estudiante de periodismo. Sentándonos con John en la mesa de entrevistas, teníamos nuestras preguntas listas, y antes de que tuviéramos la cámara grabando, dijo: “Guau, esto es genial. Solo mira lo maravilloso que es todo esto: este es el futuro”.

Cuando le pregunté: “¿Qué desafíos enfrentó como estudiante latino en la universidad?” Respondió casi al instante, diciendo: “¡Iba a abandonarla! Mi familia no podía permitirse que yo fuera a la universidad. En mi segundo año, el gran desafío fue que iba a salirme. Mi familia me necesitaba”. Agregó que mantenerse viendo el panorama global y rodearse de otros alumnos y amigos con ideas afines lo ayudó a seguir adelante. “Ten amigos que tengan los mismos sueños, deseos y aspiraciones”. Agregó que sus padres siempre lo apoyaron a continuar con su educación. Su madre, que se ganaba la vida limpiando casas, conocía el poder de la educación y le dijo que nunca se rindiera.

John habló de su trayectoria, en sus inicios creció en una familia inmigrante hasta convertirse en la figura pública que es al día de hoy. Le pregunté: “¿Cuál fue la chispa inicial que lo empujó a convertirse en periodista?” John se recostó, y con confianza y motivación en su voz, dijo: “Quería darle luz a las cosas que estaban mal”.

John comentó que cuando creció, recogiendo tomates en Ohio y cerezas en Michigan, su familia y las familias con las que viajaban, sufrieron de discriminación, fueron menospreciadas, y la gente tenía prejuicios basados en cómo se veía y hablaba. John agregó: “¡Quería cambiar el mundo! Cuando miras a un reportero, miras a un reformador, alguien que quiere hacer del mundo un lugar mejor”.

La experiencia fue como ninguna otra, y la cantidad de conocimiento, que John compartió con todas las personas con las que habló fue monumental. Lo que ha aportado al mundo, es más que simplemente mostrarnos cómo entrar en una situación injusta, como en su programa “¿Qué harías?” John nos ha abierto la puerta a un mundo de posibilidades no solo para la comunidad latina, sino para todos los que alguna vez se han sentido menospreciados, derrotados, etiquetados o simplemente que no son suficiente. John nos dejó esta cita, y siempre me referiré a ella: “Recuerden que son dignos… Que tienen un hermoso legado e historia y pueden aportar muchísimo”.
